Scientific research has proven that the floor heating is the most advisable heating system, as it has an even physiological temperature distribution over the human body.

Elektra Underfloor heating provides efficient room heating, in any situation. It can be used in the home or in the workplace.

Elektra Underfloor heating is effective because it uses the basic fact that warm air rises. If the heat source is as low as possible and spread over the entire area that needs heating, heat will be evenly and effectively spread throughout the room

Other heating systems emit hot air which rises to the ceiling, without heating the entire room, until it becomes cold, then it falls down and results in a draught.

Elektra Underfloor heating is also beneficial for people with allergies or asthma, it reduces the amount of dust particles in the air being circulated than other forms of heating.

Heating Type Comparison Chart
Heating Type	Radiators / Panel Heaters	Electric Warm Fan Heaters	Oil Filled Radiators	Electric Underfloor Heating
Method of Heat Transfer	Rely on circulating warm air by convection	Fan-driven warm air	Rely on circulating warm air by convection	Mainly radiant heat, warming objects in its path
Efficiency	Warm above, cool below means cold floors and uneven heating	Ineffective at heating lower areas	At best, a temporary heating measure	Everything from the floor up is gently warmed, perfect for tiled floors
Distribution	Need several radiators for even heating	Gives warm areas, but leaves cold spots	Several needed to give even heat	Gives a very even spread of heat
Aesthetics	Take up significant amount of space	Difficult to position for effective heating	Require plug socket and leave trailing cables	Invisible heating, as virtually entire system is out of sight
Maintenance	Require regular cleaning and maintenance	Generate dust and need cleaning	Require regular cleaning	Nothing to clean or paint
Costs	With two or more radiators, costs increase significantly	Quite inexpensive, but not very effective	Low cost	DIY Kits are simple and quick to install, provide effective heating
